DESCRIPTION:
The WaterPur™ Model CCI-10CLW12 is a
Household Class, Group 2, water filtration device designed
for installation in recreational vehicles. It has a micron rating
of 1 micron, a capacity of 10,000 gallons of chlorine removal
at 2.5 gallons per minute. This capacity was determined
under WQA Standard S-200 Test Conditions, and may vary
with local water characteristics.
The cartridge consists of activated carbon particles fused
into a uniform block with enhanced absorptive capacity and
efficiency. The cartridge flows in a radial outside-to-inside
direction providing increased dirt capacity and low pressure
drop (8 psid @ 1 gpm service flow, maximum differential
pressure of 100 psid and a collapse pressure of 200 psid).
Unlike granular activated carbon (GAC) filters, the extruded
carbon will not channel or bypass, due to the extreme
uniformity of its extruded activated carbon core. Service life
is greatly extended by a layer of 15 micron polypropylene
spun-bonded prefiltration medium and a second layer of 5
micron polypropylene melt blown filter medium.
Maximum cartridge operating pressure is 125 psid and
maximum operating temperature is 125O˚ F. Minimum
operating temperature is 400˚ F. The housing and cartridge
are constructed of 100% NSF listed materials.
• Place one ounce of household bleach (such as Clorox) in
your RV’s fresh water tank, for each ten gallons of capacity.
(If your tank holds 30 gallons, put 3 ounces of bleach in
the tank.) Fill your RV’s fresh water tank with potable water.
• SLOWLY open the faucets in the RV and allow water to
flow until you smell chlorine at each faucet, then close
the faucet. DO NOT PERMIT THE CHLORINATED WATER
TO SPLASH ONTO CLOTHES, WALLS, COUNTERS OR
FLOORS. Allow the system to sit overnight.
• Drain the fresh water tank and fill with potable water. Run
the faucets until the chlorine smell is gone. Repeat as
necessary.
• Shut off the fresh water pump or disconnect from your city
water supply. Open the kitchen faucets to remove pressure.
Place a shallow pan beneath The WaterPur™ filter.
• Remove the sump from The WaterPur™ housing by turning
counterclockwise being careful not to spill the water in the
housing. Empty the water from the housing.
• Unwrap the WaterPur™ cartridge and place it in the
housing. (Either side up). Make certain that the ‘O’ ring is
properly seated, and reattach the housing to the filter cap
by turning clockwise. Tighten the housing firmly by hand.
DO NOT overtighten.
• Close the kitchen faucets and either turn on your fresh
water pump or your city water supply. Check for leaks at the
filter housing. Tighten if necessary. Open the kitchen faucet
and allow water to flow for ten minutes. Your WaterPurTM
system is now ready to deliver fresh tasting filtered water to
all of the faucets in your RV!
Winterize To winterize your RV’s water system, remove
the WaterPur™ cartridge from the housing and follow
manufacturer’s directions for dewinterizing, then replace The
WaterPur™ cartridge. The cartridge should be replaced every
12 months or 10,000 gallons, whichever comes first.
An easy way to remember to do this is to replace the cartridge
when you dewinterize in the spring. Replace The WaterPur™
cartridge only with a genuine WaterPurTM cartridge available
from your Forest River Inc. dealer.
Operational Note: The WaterPur™ cartridge is not to be
autoclaved or steam sterilized. Use The WaterPur™ cartridge
with microbiologically safe water. Activated carbon filters are
not designed to kill or remove bacterial or viruses. Actual
results obtained will vary with various combinations of
organic contaminants, changes in pH or other conditions
encountered in actual use. All information presented is
based on data believed to be reliable. It is offered for
evaluation and verification, but is not to be considered a
warranty of any kind. The contaminants removed by The
WaterPur™ cartridge are not necessarily in your water. Some
jurisdictions tax, regulate, or restrict devices making health
related or aesthetic claims. WaterPurTM makes no claims in
those jurisdictions.
